Ten Times One Player Beat Two In Professional Smash Bros.

I've been spending a lot of time with the new Super Smash Bros. games on Wii U and 3DS lately, but actually playing doesn't get me nearly as hyped as this compilation of pros succeeding against the odds.

EvenMatchupGaming's first Super Smash Bros. "2v1 comebacks" video features ten clips of players whose partners have died in 2v2 matches, leaving them alone against two opponents, prevailing anyway with style and skill.

I think the best clips are the last one — for the sheer unlikeliness of a player using Jigglypuff to kill two opponents at once, one of them twice — and the first one, which I GIF'd for your pleasure below. There's just something so creepy about Snake's sleeper hold move (I miss him in the new games!) and I love everyone's reactions.

Triple AAA games nailing the brief. Indie games surprising people out of nowhere, and expansions and patches that completely turn a game around. It's been a good year for games - now it's time for you to vote for your favourite.
